Salpingectomy Cost in India

The cost of Salpingectomy in India typically ranges from $500 to $6,000 USD, depending on the hospital, city, and type of procedure.

Salpingectomy removes one or both fallopian tubes. The cost depends on:

• Reason: ectopic pregnancy, hydrosalpinx before IVF, sterilisation or cancer risk reduction.
• Approach: usually laparoscopic.
• Emergency or planned: ruptured ectopic pregnancy needs urgent surgery.
• Combined procedures: for example during hysterectomy.

• Ectopic pregnancy: to remove a pregnancy growing in the tube.
• Hydrosalpinx: a fluid-filled tube that can lower IVF success.
• Permanent contraception: as an alternative to clips.
• Ovarian cancer risk reduction: opportunistic salpingectomy during other surgery.

A 2025 ESGO consensus published in JAMA reports that removing the tubes during other pelvic or abdominal surgery is associated with a lower risk of later tubo-ovarian cancer. It appears safe, adds little operating time and showed no short-term harm to ovarian function, although long-term data are still lacking. It recommends discussing it with eligible women before surgery.

• One tube removed: natural pregnancy is still possible with the other tube.
• Both tubes removed: natural pregnancy is not possible. IVF can still be used.
• Recovery: about one to two weeks after keyhole surgery.
